Herpetomonad

/ˌhɜrpɪtoʊˈmoʊnæd/ noun

Definition

A protozoan organism of the genus Herpetomonas, a parasitic flagellate found in insects.

Etymology

From 'herpeto-' (moving/crawling) combined with 'monad' (from Greek 'monas,' unit). These microorganisms were named for their creeping movement under magnification.

Kelly Says

These microscopic organisms infect insects like flies and bed bugs—they're invisible to the naked eye but represent an entire world of parasitic evolution we're still discovering!
